In this brief, we share our concerns, gaps, challenges, and good practices in addressing the protection of victims and survivors of sexual exploitation and violence. This brief details our concerns regarding the manifestations of the sale and trafficking of children and sexual exploitation of children, particularly adolescent girls, online. The roots of sexual exploitation and abuse of children can be found in vulnerabilities that arise from sex and gender-based discrimination, intersecting inequalities (such as poverty, quality of education, age, ethnicity, and migrant status), and harmful cultural beliefs and social norms.
